CVU RoboHawks

About Us!

Our Story

​Since 1999, the RoboHawks have existed as the Engineering Club at Champlain Valley Union HS in Hinesburg, VT. The group consists of students, mentors and innovators who strive to promote STEM through passion based, hands-on learning.

For the past 13 years, the RoboHawks have been competing in the First Tech Challenge (FTC) created by FIRST Robotics. Last year, the team had the incredible opportunity to participate in the 2023 World Championship in Huston, TX, representing Vermont as State champions and recipients of the prestigious Inspire Award. Last year, our team had our most successful season ever!

We were incredibly excited and grateful to have the opportunity to compete again in the 2023 World Championship last April as the winners of the Inspire Award.
